Alison Price has been an artist as long as she can remember. Early artistic endeavors involved melting crayons on warm lightbulbs, dripping food coloring on the family’s supply of tissue, and plucking interesting patterns on her mother’s prized chenille bedspread. The family survived these creative forays, and actually encouraged more!

Alison is always looking for intriguing uses of color and light and how it relates to human emotion. The muse often strikes near any body of water, and winter does not hinder her quest. Alison camps and sketches on the shores of Lake Superior year round, as she finds its mercurial temperament a constant source of inspiration. Her art is the combination of all her passions: travel, light, color, the environment, meeting and befriending new people worldwide, Alison believes "it is our similarities which make us comfortable, and our differences that make us interesting". This belief about human connections is readily apparent in her work.

Alison holds a BA degree in Studio Art from Augsburg College in Minneapolis, and a Master of Arts from the University of Wisconsin.
